Structured Mentoring

Our innovative best in class mentoring programs facilitate career and leadership development for both mentees and mentors.

We know what it takes to make mentoring truly constructive and transformative. Our programs provide the framework for professional and meaningful personal growth. With a decade of refinement and proven results, our mentoring programs positively transform the careers and lives of participants (both mentees and mentors).

 

CURRENT PROGRAMS

Senior leaders consistently attribute the critical role of mentors and sponsors in their success. They also understand the importance of paying it forward to emerging and aspiring leaders.

Research has shown that participants of our programs are more focused and strategic about their career. They report a significant boost in their confidence, strategic thinking and ability to lead teams, influence stakeholders and network.

Participants also frequently attribute dramatic perspective changes when they have attended our facilitated career development workshops as well as greatly benefiting from the community and network they build during the program. The scheme provides access to a mentor as a sounding board who offers a different, more experienced perspective, encouragement and insight. Programs are typically between 6-8 months in length and are fully managed and facilitated by Serendis in consultation with the client.

We currently deliver annual cross sector mentoring programs for the following industry associations:

 

A RECORD OF RESULTS

Throughout our structured mentoring programs, mentees receive personalised feedback and advice on how to develop their leadership skills including their strategic outlook, their ability to influence others, manage complex projects and stakeholders, develop meaningful relationships and lead people.

At the same time, mentors are also given an opportunity for personal growth as they develop their inclusive leadership skills – something for which Serendis is considered an industry leader.

Our results speak for themselves:

“I have found the program extremely valuable and challenging. The program is really adding value not only to mentees, but to conversations and thinking on diversity in general.”
“Absolutely wonderful program - really life (career) changing for people - particularly mentees I was previously a highly experienced mentor yet the program provided me an operational framework that ensured our meetings were more goal-driven. Working with a highly motivated mentee is particularly rewarding. I listen more, I ask more questions and offer less advice”
